TALION
By Steve Cornwell

GENRE: Action
LOGLINE:

Aidan Moore loses his family over a case of mistaken identity and vows to fulfil Talion Law

in their name against the city’s most ruthless lawbreaker using his own Russian Roulette setting against him.

SYNOPSIS:

A simple case of mistaken identity sets into motion a chain of events

that costs one man his family and threatens to cost another his empire.

Aidan Moore is a loving husband and father who has served his country

and is reaping the benefits that only a home life and simple pleasures

can provide. That is at least the case until he leaves town in the hope

of sealing a work contract and returns home to find both his wife and

young son missing, apparently murdered. The police are sure of the

perpetrator but have no solid evidence, as has been the case for as long

as lifelong criminal Joseph Carey has had a handle on the city’s

underworld.

Fast forward and Aidan, in a completely different guise is sitting at a

beaten wooden table, opposite a man of similar wearing, lifting a gun to

his temple, surrounded by a cheering horde in a desolate warehouse in a

deadly game of Russian Roulette.

As each round of the deadly tournament triggers details from Aidan’s

path to the current day, he serves justice befitting the crimes

committed, making his way to the ultimate goal of Joseph Carey. In a

race against time of being unmasked by his targets and prevented in his

mission by the police, Aidan is adamant he won’t deviate from his

undertaking, but all that could change as he learns of his son’s

survival.
